Will I Be Able To Get A Job As A Nursing Assistant In Oklahoma?
I am currently taking a Nursing Assistant course in California. After I complete the course, I will be able to get my certification. Will I be able to use my nursing assistant certification from California to get a job as a CNA in Oklahoma? If not, what will I have to do to get an Oklahoma certification? I won’t have to take a CNA class all over again, right?

CNA Oklahoma Certification Steps
In order to legally be employed as a CNA in Oklahoma nursing homes and long-term care facilities, individuals must be placed upon the state’s CNA registry. To do this, the following requirements must be met:
•Successfully complete an OK CNA training program
•Pass the state’s CNA competency examination
•Pass a criminal history background check
Those who have an active CNA certification from another state can contact OSDH (405-271-4085) to inquire about reciprocity (which is the transfer of certification from one state to another). In addition, those who have graduated from an accredited academic nursing program can petition OSDH to waive the in-state CNA Oklahoma training program requirement.
